Assigning Asset Labels

  • Assigning a label to a single image:

    1. Click on the image thumbnail "Add Label".

    3. Once you create the label, it will be automatically assigned to the image

  • Edit or delete a label

    1. Click the label on the thumbnail

    2. Hover over the label

      1. Pencil Icon will allow you to change the name and color

      2. Trashcan Icon will delete it from your list of labels and any assets to which it was applied

  • Assigning labels to multiple assets:

    1. Batch select many assets at once to update labels faster.

    2. Ctrl/Cmd + click to select the assets you want to label.

    3. Click Add label at the bottom of the screen or in the right-click menu.


Removing Labels

  • To remove a label from a single asset:

    1. Select the image thumbnail.

    2. Click on the label name.

    3. Select the label name from the list to remove it.

  • To remove a label from multiple assets:

    2. Click on the label at the bottom-center of the interface.

    3. Select the label name from the list to remove it.


Adding Label Groups to Your Workspace

You can add Label Groups to your workspace, enabling you to load label templates easily when starting new projects within your workspace. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Go to your avatar or initials at the top left of the interface.

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Select the workspace to which you want to add the label group (from the left-hand panel, below your profile).

  4. Select the Projects tab.

  5. Scroll down to the Label Groups section and add your label group.

  6. Navigate back to the project you're working on (must have been made in the same workspace)

  7. Click the label that is applied or click "Add Label"

  8. Select "Add Group" to load the label group into the project

This feature simplifies the process of applying consistent labels across your projects.


New Feature: Multiple labels are here!

What’s New?

You can now assign multiple labels to assets, giving you more flexibility and customization than ever before. Whether you're using labels to track project progress, statuses, assignees, descriptions, or custom criteria—now you can apply more than one label at a time.

  • Tag without limits – Apply as many labels as you need to from the list. Use shortcuts and make it even faster!

  • Find assets instantly – Use enhanced filters to search by one or multiple labels. Need precision? Toggle "Match All" to display only assets that include every selected label.
